Get Northern and Thames link to Refund Season ticket holder for slower trains.
More stops mean Season ticket holders loose out on excess money paid for faster trains over slower trains. All trains from Cambridge to kings cross route has slowed down. We commuters pay one of the highest prices in Europe for a what used to be a 55 minute travel and now a 75 minute travel.
There are slower trains in the same route or in Route From Cambridge to Liverpool street. My understanding is we pay at least £1000 for a faster peak train. Consistently being slow means we can apply for delay repay, but the fact is we have been fleeced of quite a large sum in the season ticket goes unnoticed. This is not just in Cambridge route but every route Thames-link operates. Can the parliament take some responsibility to get some justice for the beaten up middle class commuter.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Compensation is the responsibility of rail companies.
The Government has already announced that a compensation scheme will be introduced, funded by the rail industry. You can read the Government statement here:

If you'd like the UK Government to take additional action, you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
